Man with swords arrested at Logan International airport

BOSTON -- A man who walked through Logan International Airport with three samurai swords was arrested on disorderly conduct charges after nervous passengers scrambled to get out of his way.

Raymond Morrison, 23, of Dracut, did not attempt to breach security and apparently had no plans to fly anywhere, said Phil Orlandella, a spokesman for the Massachusetts Port Authority, which runs the airport.

But when Morrison walked up to three terminals Sunday wearing a cowboy hat, with the swords protruding from the waistband of his jeans, passengers became frightened.

"He caused a ruckus. People were panicking and running away," said state police Sgt. Edward Principe.
